For the first time in years with being with a Xperia Z phone, I have run out of battery before the day was over.
I'm getting between 2.5 to 3.5 SOT, and yesterday it just wasn't enough. With the Z3 (no plus) I got 4 to 5, sometimes even 6 (though I never quite knew why it would differ so much with similar use).
Sony needs to sort this out, and fast, or the Z5 will not be for me (I've been with the Z series since day 1). Oh, and yes, I'd still be on the Z3 had I not dropped it once too many.
This is a Google issue. See battery thread.

Then you're doing something wrong. I easily get a SoT of 4 hours and sometimes 6 to 7 hours.
Install the RAM cleaner
I faced this issue before. When I look deep into the process and so on, I found that the "wechat" and "facebook" is consuming a big piece of the resources. So, I deleted it and the battery life seems like last a bit longer than usual.

Facebook definitely is having problems here too, sometimes it bursts up in battery usage and has around 20% when the day is finished which is unacceptable
I suggest you to use Snapdragon battery guru to control how much background apps connect to the internet.. So you can control facebook and others...

I just started University again after a summerbreak so its been lots of 3g/4g and one sentence sums everything up.
The mobile radio bug is the worst thing in Lollipop without any question. Its just horrible how Google has handled this.
Its not acceptable for Facebook and Chrome to eat up 50% combined out of all the battery drain

hello
i have nexus 6P and the latest version of whatsapp from the market, i saw that the CPU usage is 18 minutes and the radio usage is 3 houers, that cause the battery to drain very fest, is there any fix for these?
thank you
Same problem here with my moto x play. I tried nearly everything but nothing helps..
i sent them mail today but they saw at the log that my device is rooted so they answer that they are not going to answer these because of the root, i told them that also without root it accoure but they don't mind,
so i head to XDA the masters!

I have a method. Now, you will need a few applications. I'm inferring you have xposed framework installed. Look up "AppOpsXposed" in the xposed installer. Now, open whats app from within the AppOps and disable "Wake up device", "Start on boot". Now, download the app Greenify. And hibernate whats app. Hope this helps!
i'm not with exposed even?
just root, stock kernel,stock recovery,stock rom.
but these thing is over the world not just me

I think this is the issue with all these messaging app. Facebook messenger, whatsapp, viber. I got rid of facebook messenger because of this. But can't do without viber and whatsapp. In my case, viber kills even more battery than whatsapp.
I would like to know too if there is a way to control the syncing frequency of these apps.
Must be a user by user issue then. I'm using whatsapp just fine the last few days with newest update and no battery issues at all. Right now I'm at 1:48 SOT with 81% battery left and in GSAM it shows .2% of battery used by Whatsapp with 24 the number of times waking the device 19sec of CPU time.
you are something special because the number of users that uses whatsapp and the battery is drain is much more,
it can be anything with root?

Like most of you, I have been complaining about excessive battery drain in nougat versions. After trying different roms and going back to Emui 4.0, I came across C636B585. This version have quite a great battery performance (even better than Emui) and the fast charge came back, (it had disappeared in other Nougat versions) finally I have a great battery live in a Nougat version, and the device feels smooth as butter. Definitely worth giving it a try.
I debranded and then got the update using proxy and the firmware finder.
Now if only there was a working way to get it on AL10C00
would love to try it
@juanq214, do you know how can I move from cm-13 custom ROM (lineage os) to L29C636B585? I don't want to brick my device so would like to avoid trial and error methods. Any help / links much appreciated.
IS it better than al10 b589? ^^
I have this version and did factory reset etc. I still think the battery is poor in comparison to pretty much any Marshmallow rom. Max SOT I get is 6-7 hours, but it's random sometimes I get less than 5. With MM I'd typically get around 9-10 SOT.

thats the 50.000 dollar question here im betting B589 has the same base, if not newer, so debranding an AL10 to L29C636 just to try this rom wouldnt make much sense in my eyes
guys, i will tell you this one more time: depending on the apps ure running, the sensors u leave switched on (BT, GPS, Wifi, etc) especially when not in active use, screen brightness, standby time, number of calls made, data type (2G/3G/4G), etc your SOT values will differ by A LOT even on the exact same firmware and configuration!!!
example: on days when im at home / permanently connected to a wifi (all other sensors and mobile data switched off), i usually get around 9-11h SOT.
however, when im on the move with mobile data switched on (3G), using GPS for navigation and making calls, then my SOT tanks to around 6-7h. thats both on the same firmware with same settings, same apps installed etc.
so, if you REALLY want to compare battery life between firmwares objectively, ull have to do the following:
install firmware, leave it stock, dont change any settings, switch on wifi, BT, gps, mobile data, make sure the screen stays switched on at a defined brightness level (not automatic but static) and make sure u dont get any calls or messages, otherwise that would again change the battery life.
do that for every single firmware and u got urself an objective comparison of SOT values
personally, no matter which firmware i was on so far, i always got more or less identical SOT runtimes: around 9-12h on less intensive days and 6-8h on more intensive days. thats it, and it hasnt changed going from B112 to B357 to B575

Well, in my case I have had 5 different Mate 8 devices, so I am quite familiar with this device. Like the previous comment points it out, it is quite difficult to make an objective comparison between different filmwares. However you know your device and you can tell when it is consuming more battery than I should. Before this version, I was running L29C432B585, and you could see the battery draining in from of your eyes as you used the decide, it was just unusual.
I am a heavy user, (Bluetooth for my smartwatch, GPS when driving, wifi modem, switched to 4g often, etc) and still can make it to the end of the afternoon in a normal day without charging. That's fair enough for me. Also you must take into account how old your device is, and batteries get older, they lose mha capacity.

Can confirm this. I have no problem getting over 10h SOT when one wifi. This phone is very efficient when not on mobile data.
Huawei radio sucks a lot. You can see how the phone gets hot with intensive Internet use on mobile data while it stays cool when you do the same on wifi.
I'm wondering why all these updates get sent out to some, but not to all Mate8 users?

depends on your cust (internal regional code) and im guessing they send out the updates in waves to check to real life applicability (no bugs, stable, etc)
also, lots of people here just update manually via firmware finder or dload method
i for one am planning to update to kangvip B589 once im back home from holidays

Not that I'm aware of.
Sadly the battery drain came back... From yesterday afternoon the battery has been draining at an unusual fast pace, strangely the fast charging feature is also gone.
So it seems it's something that comes and goes. Since I flashed this rom, I had used the phone for about 1 week without battery issues. I wonder what triggers this behavior In the device? Yesterday y didn't do any unusual stuff apart from installing a couple of apps.
I'll have to end up selling my device and sticking to a different brand. Definitely Huawei produces great phones with really poor support and almost no development. I'll keep you posted.

the support is actually great for the mate 8. here some statistics: from october 30th, 2015 up to the most recent firmwares from july 21st, 2017, a total of 595(!!!) full firmwares and OTA updates have been published on huawei servers for all variants of the mate 8. that time span is equivalent to 630 days, so we have 630/595 equals
one firmware published every 1.06 days or 25.4 hours on average!!!
could anyone call that bad support?
besides, this battery drain issue some users face here sounds VERY much like a settings / installed apps problem to me, especially since it just "appears" suddenly when "a couple of apps" are installed, very curious indeed

It doesn't make any sense to release updates if they come with lots of bugs and you have to wait for a miracle to receive Ota or push it yourself by debranding or other methods. I wish they released a stable Nougat version.
Regarding the apps installed, it's just impossible that common apps such as Twitter or xda app could increase battery consumption that much. I have had more than 4 different Mate 8 devices so I kinda know the device well and for sure this battery drain has to do with the rom.

downgrade from B585
How to downgrade my firmware?
I have an original L29C636 on B585, I want to "downgrade" back to a previous ROM, anything before B585, I couldn't find a way to do it, please help
two of my friends also having a stock L29C636 and they both said after updaing to B585, they have 20% less battery and phone freezes for a sec here and there sometimes. So they are just normal users and they use the same app, same way, so there might really be some battery drain issue here.
Thanks
Went from rooted device with stock rom 9.0.11 back to 9.0.6 because battery on 9.0.11 was not impressive after a couple weeks.
I followed this proccedure https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6t/how-to/rom-stock-fastboot-roms-oneplus-6t-t3862516 , I downloaded the 9.0.6 fastboot zip file and then I extracted and opend the flash-all.bat file, Phone rebooted and everything was deleted (backup was already made), so at the moment I have 9.0.6.
A couple strange problem, youtube is acting very strange, the video stutters and there is not audio, also when trying to play spotify there is no sound at all. I think the flashing process was not really good otherwise I should have these kind of problems. Before I downgrade, everything was working fine.
So how should I procceed to fix this
Try clearing cache from stock recovery. Probably some things remained that need to be cleared out.
Also, I'm stock on 9.0.11 and get 2-3 days of great battery after a reboot, then performance degrades. At the moment I'm rebooting every 48-72 hours and all is well.

I fixed by following this guide https://phonebatao.com/guide-oneplus-6-how-to-downgrade-from-android-pie-9-0-to-android-oreo-8-1
so with 9.0.11 you have around 2/3 days batter life by rebooting your device at least 1/2 times to have that great battery lfe ? is that what your saying....
What I mean is that idle draw is quite low (2-3% overnight) for the first 2-3 days after a reboot. Actual time depends a lot on what I'm doing with it. If gaming , I get maybe a day off use before charging. If no gaming 2-3 days.

It varies widely. Some days i only use the phone 1 he SOT while others might be 5 hrs. I'm not predictable that way. But I know from many cycles that if I don't reboot by day 3 the idle draw goes up by a factor of 3-4. Rebooting cures it for a few days. Not sure where draw is from, Accubattery hasn't helped me narrow it down and I don't have BBS installed.

Better Battery Stats app. Works best if rooted or you give permissions via ADB. I'm not rooted and haven't bothered with it because my battery lasts fine if reboot now and then.

thnx men, I m gonna take a look at Better battery stats.
Hi,
I just downloaded the new firmware for my S10+ exynos version via OTA. The firmware version is G975XXU3ASIE
I'm getting terrible battery drain after installing it. I've rebooted and wiped cache, but it hasn't made a difference. I can't seem to find what is causing the drain. Normally I am able to have my phone running the whole day and when I wake up the next morning it's be at 40-50% battery left. Now it's about 20% left instead, so theres definitely a huge drain.
Do I need to factory reset to resolve this issue?
Any ideas on what the problem could be? From what it looks like google play services is taking a massive amount of battery, but not running for a long time. Also, whattsasp, twitter and other social media services. But those weren't a problem before. I feel like play services might be the issues. So I cleared data on play services but hasn't seemed to make a difference.
Any other solutions, or do I need to factory reset? Thanks!
I've attached my battery stats for today, and for the week.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks guys!
Can anyone offer some advice?
